[All the others swords have noticed as much, and some of them are pretty glad for it, too, because they're not quite sure what to do with a small human. The tantou seem happy to have a little master, but some of the others are pretty perplex. How do you raise a small human exactly? They are swords, not babysitters.
But Mikazuki doesn't seem flustered about it, so they've wisely decided they can leave it to him.
He smiles at the question, and holds out his hand for her to touch. It's big and warm.]
Yes, I am. But I am also more than that, thanks to Aruji. To the one before you, and now to you as well.
[They may have been summoned by another Saniwa, but it is her power now that will sustain them, heal them, make them stronger.]
It is thanks to you that we have these bodies and can now experience things humans feel. In time you will understand. but it is time for sleep now, Aruji. I'll stay with you until you fall asleep.
( She looks at his hand and reaches out to touch it gently. Her hands are small, and soft, the hands of someone who really hasn't had to work with them very much. It's only now, when she really focuses on their hands touching that just a little bit of her magic seems to actively seep through. It's warm, the kind of life granting magic all saniwa possess but from this day on, it's the magic of his new saniwa.
Mikazuki's answer isn't a new one. She'd hear very similar things before coming here. She doesn't understand all of it but she understands just enough to know the important things: They depend on her and she'll have to take care of them. And soon, she'll learn that she can depend on them and they'll take care of her...
When her concentration breaks, so does that short connection of magic and she nods, getting under the covers and turning on her side to watch Mikazuki just a little more with curious eyes.
An old sword that is now an old man... Hm. )
Good night, Mikazuki-san.
( And Mikazuki is absolutely right. She goes to sleep almost immediately. )
